Hi,

[quote userid="94221" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/67001/connecting-nrf9610-and-nrf52xxxx"]I was thinking to connect nRF9160 and nRF52xxxx but I never used Nordic chip before. Is it a good idea ?[/quote]

Very good idea :)

We have an example/sample called LTE Sensor Gateway in NCS for this use-case. See this and this link.

It uses UART to connect the nRF9160 and the nRF52840 together. The Bluetooth Controller is running on the nRF52840, and the Bluetooth Host is running on the nRF9160. You can use the nRF9160-DK to test the sample.

Don't uBlox have something?

[quote userid="94221" url="~/f/nordic-q-a/67001/connecting-nrf9610-and-nrf52xxxx"]Which is the best (sic) way to interconnect nRF9610 and nRF52xxx[/quote]

There is no such thing as "best" - it all depends on your specific requirements & constraints.

But the nRF52 certainly support all the usual suspects; UART, SPI, I2C - or roll your own ...
